When you think of pests in your home, one of the first things that crosses everyone's mind is rodents. Rats and mice are synonymous with unwanted pests and vermin. Humans have been battling them in their homes forever. In a city it can be especially hard to get rid of them entirely.
The proximity of restaurants, dumpsters, and homes makes for a rampant spread of these creatures. They will go where they can easily find food. Cold weather will only make them seek warmth more. They will begin to search for ways to enter your home. It can be difficult to keep them out, because they are sneaky and clever animals. They are persistent too.
They will look for any way into your home. Mice are particularly difficult to keep out because they can fit through holes the size of a ballpoint pen. This means that you will have to be thorough in working to keep your home free of rodents. Once you have them however, it is important you work to get rid of them as soon as possible due to the hazards they pose to your home.
Rodent Control Services
Rodents are notorious for carrying diseases that are harmful for both domesticated animals and humans. One of the best known illnesses is rabies. Being bitten by a rabid rodent will spread the disease. Rabid animals are well known for attacking without being prompted, creating a dangerous situation.
Animals and children are especially at risk simply because they do not fully understand the risks that are posed. Beyond physical dangers, they can also create hazards in your home. Rodents have a tendency to bite through wires that they come across on their path. While this might be a minor annoyance at first if they cut the cord to a lamp or electronic, it can get far more serious.
If they bite through wires in the wall, you will not necessarily know or be able to properly get at them to fix. Loose wires will mean that there is a potential of an electrical fire. If you want to avoid these risks, call rodent control services and book an appointment.
